May 8, 2007 Bottle. Pours black with a perfect brown tight bubbly head. Aroma is strong chocolate, sweet and roasty malts, a touch of coffee, and oats. Flavor is roasty malts, chocolate, espresso, sweet oats, and even a bitter hoppy touch. Mouthfeel is quite full, and the finish lingers for a long while.

May 2, 2007 Updated: Oct 9, 2007Une des bonnes bières canadiennes! Goût très prononcé avec un bel arôme de chocolat. L’utilisation d’avoine lui donne un corps riche et onctueux. Essayer avec un gâteau au chocolat :)

Apr 30, 2007 12oz bottle from robinboyer. Aroma: Deep and slightly sweet roasted malt aroma with a strong note of chocolate. Smells like chocolate malted milk. A bit of anise and spice. A light sourness, as well. Appearance: Dark brown in color with small walnut highlights. Light tan head was full and foamy with great retention. Good lacing. Flavor: Lots of roasted malt with notes of chocolate, coffee, and smoke. Anise and spice. Lots of roasted malt bitterness into the finish and beyond. Sourness returns into the finish, too. Seems a bit out of place. Palate: Medium bodied. Medium carbonation. Overall: Pretty nice beer. Lots of rich roasted malt flavor. Could use a bit more mouthfeel, but that’s a small quibble.

does not count  Apr 16, 2007 I was delighted to see one of my favourite beers ranked as the 3rd best Canadian beer. This is available in bottle and on tap. I happened to have this on tap in a nearby pub close to The University of Guelph Campus. Probably the best stout I’ve tasted. Pours very dark brown, with suprisingly minimal head. First impressions, was a very creamy, thick stouts, with hints of coffee bean, chocolate, and a slightly bitter aftertaste of cinamon. The only downside to this beer is that it takes quite a while to get through one pint, since there is so many favours. This is not a beer that should be drunk fast, but on the other hand, if it is drunk too slowly, then it can sometimes be tedius to get through. I have had it quite a few times, and I savour it each time. It is a beer that is easy to find in most Canadian LCBO’s, and any beer lover should go out and try it. Highly recomended!

Apr 15, 2007 Bottle thanks to robinvboyer. Black pour with a tall frothy tan head. Aroma of roasted oats, brown sugar, and a sourish note. Flavor is reminiscent of a mocha shake with some roasted malt. The finish is somewhat sour and astringent. Body is rich, full, and creamy.
